We will miss seeing Sylve around! Photo by Jenny Abrahamsson.Sylve Söderstrand will not continue as Chef d’Equipe for Sweden. Söderstrand had a two year contract with the Swedish federation, and the contract runs out at the end of the year – but unfortunately the charming Swede has decided not to renew. “It’s been really fun working with the riders, but there have been some hard moments too – but many wonderful and exciting memories that I will take with me,” Sylve says in a press release.

To the Swedish website tidningenridsport.se Sylve says that even though he still has a burning passion for the sport, this decision is first and foremost about himself. “I’m in a relationship and have my own business to run. The national team demands that I’m a lot away,” Sylve says.
